transmission ransomware
Just reading about that transmission ransomware that attacks macs and wondering if there is any way to test my mac to see if it's been infected. I was hoping there would be a blog about it.
Mac mini (Late 2012), Yosemite

You have nothing to fear from KeRanger unless you downloaded and installed the Transmission BitTorrent client this past weekend. If you did, you need to delete Transmission and restart your computer immediately! That is all that is required to remove the malware. Version 2.90 of the Transmission app was infected with KeRanger.
If you don't have Transmission on your computer, then you're fine.
